YES YES YES YES! Sunstreaker and his unique transformation design has a special page in the history of Transformers and in some regards, more significant than SS or RA.

I will say that is a steep price for a figure that might hit 7" inches tall. I will be forced to wait on a price drop from online retailers OR an American release. The Soundwa... I mean MP - 13, is finally revealed just a short while after Fanstoys is terminated.... interesting.

Fantoys isn't putting theirs out any more and I thought the same thing. Fantoys was gonna release an mp soundwave and hasbro and Takara are tired of 3rd party so the put one out to crush the competition.

You know, with MP-12's scale, a MP Menasor doesn't sound impossible at all, since it's 4 cars and a truck.

Hello Soundwave?

Not sure how you thought MP-13 to be soundwave, because that totally looks like another Lambor mold.

I'm with you. It looks like a shot taken from a different angle to me. Nothing about it says Soundwave to me. I am intrigued by the new direction Masterpiece is going.

Comparing the MP13 silhouette with 3rd party SW, I can say that is Soundwave.

A better version of the MP-12 Lambor image has surfaced on ACToys! This version is clearer and shows the figure from the back and in vehicle mode. The MP-13 teaser is present as well. Check it out below.

It's not bad comparison the only thing that throws me off is the shoulder cannon .

No, it's not. For the 84th time, MP bot modes are gonna be in scale. Sideswipe is a short character, thus he's a short MP. Bigger characters will get bigger MPs, smaller characters will get smaller MPs.

I'm trying not to get angry, but it's tough when the situation needs to be repeated like that.

So wait, MP-Sideswipe is basically going to be Alternator-sized? That actually makes me way more interested in the figure. Sideswipe just didn't seem like a momentous enough character to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the other MPs, but at this size, it seems kind of awesome.

But $159 for a figure that size seems pretty insane.

Not Alternator sized, that scale is more Alternity sized.

Alternators were closer to Voyager size, while Alternity figures were roughly Deluxes. The size comparison pic in this latest scan definitely has MP Lambor standing at Voyager height.
